Windows 8: A Walk-Through

Kardu Tablet and Kal-El

This slide shows the Kardu Tablet, running on Nvidia's yet-to-be-released Kal-El processor. It's a quad-core processor, which you'll notice, from the task manager on the right, with four threads going while an HD video is playing on the left. Microsoft claims that Windows 8 is handling most of the software decoding work, which is why there's minimal utilization on all four cores.
